Description from the publisher:

Appearances can be deceiving…

Vice merchant Maxwell Gideon is wickedly handsome, sinfully arrogant, and devilishly ruthless. Rumor has it, his gaming hell has the power to steal souls and grant miracles. Truth is, Max only owns half of The Cloven Hoof. He’d buy out his silent partner if he knew the man’s identity. But it’s hard to focus on business matters when a fallen angel tumbles right into one’s lap…

Miss Bryony Grenville has a well-earned reputation as an unrepentant hoyden. But even the gossipiest of the pinch-faced matrons ruling High Society could never imagine the daughter of a baron secretly financing the ton’s most infamous gambling parlor. Its maddening, sexy proprietor doesn’t suspect a thing… and two can play at temptation!

In the Rogues to Riches historical romance series by USA Today and New York Times bestselling author Erica Ridley, Cinderella stories aren’t just for princesses… 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

LORD OF VICE is the sixth book in the Rogues to Riches series.  They each stand alone, but I believe it would be best if you read them all and in the order of release.

He sees their pairing as Beauty and the Beast, himself as a hound from hell.  She would say she is seeking the freedoms sought by the prince in the Prince and the Pauper.  Throw in a bit of The Gift of the Magi (and a voice to match Audrey Hepburn in My Fair Lady) and their love story really becomes the stuff that makes readers swoon.

Bryony Grenville is really too intelligent to be a woman of the tonne.  From the way they meet long before they actually meet face-to-face, until that meeting, and then continue to court without courting, theirs is a truly unusual story.  This is an adventure unlike any other and not to be missed.

Narration:  As I said before, Marian Hussey’s voice has the sweet tones I first heard in that famous musical.  That alone kept me glued to my Audible player (and looking up a playing of the play to watch this weekend).

Note:  While I received this book as a gifted audiobook copy, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
